The term summer colony is often used, particularly in the United States and Canada , to describe well-known resorts and upper-class enclaves, typically located near the ocean or mountains of New England or the Great Lakes . Many of these historic communities are considered quiet bastions of Old Money , though some, such as the Hamptons , are also well-known for their celebrity-driven social scenes. Additionally, their economies tend to be driven largely by this tourist trade, particularly those communities that are remote or on islands.
